Solar and extension
Foldable solar panels
Two foldable monocrystalline panels, built to recharge an NV station where there is no mains socket and no generator set. Standard MC4 connectors, with XT60, Anderson, DC7909 and DC5521 adapters in the NV-S100 box: they plug into an NV station as easily as into almost any power station on the market.

Which panel on which station
Number of panels and maximum panel power, station by station.
Up to six NV-S240 panels in series on an NV-W36 or NV-W50: 1,440 W peak, an NV-W36 refilled in half a day of sun.
| NV-S100 | NV-S240 | |
|---|---|---|
| NV-C24 | 1 to 3 in series or 2 in parallel, 300 W | 1 to 3 in series, 720 W |
| NV-P36 | 1 to 3 in series or 2 in parallel, 300 W | 1 to 3 in series, 720 W |
| NV-W36 | 1 to 6 in series, 600 W | 1 to 6 in series, 1,440 W |
| NV-W50 | 1 to 6 in series, 600 W | 1 to 6 in series, 1,440 W |
Series or parallel?
In series: voltages add up, current stays that of a single panel. This is how panels connect to stations with a wide voltage window (NV-W36, NV-W50), and how the NV-S240 connects to every station.
In parallel: currents add up, voltage stays that of a single panel. It only applies to the NV-S100 on the NV-C24 and NV-P36, two panels at most.
Three rules
- Never mix panels of different ratings on the same string.
- Total open-circuit voltage (Voc × number of panels in series) must never exceed the station's maximum input voltage.
- Aim the panel with the sun-dial indicator: the light spot must fall in the centre of the circle.
Not included
- MC4 parallel connector: wire two panel strings in parallel.
- 3 m red and black MC4 extension: move the panels away from the station.
